"The Logical Song"
A couple of my favorites:

You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. (Dylan--but I like almost all of his lyrics!)

I know it's only rock 'n roll, but I like it. (Rolling Stones)

This one's almost too good to post just a little. But, in the name of actually having my post *read*, I'm going to post a little of it.

OMG, this thread has gone this far without anything from Dylan? Here goes:

"so perish every fond ambition
god and trouble are all i've known
yet how rich is my condition
god and heaven are all my own
god and heaven are all my own

rooms full of salt
fault my pluck
and a poets charm so far, ever far
little stars that burn the holes in my soul

and everything just feels like rain
the road we're on, the things we crave
and everything just feels like rain
the nights i sleep, what's left to dream
when everything feels like rain

drift as i dive
find the deep
out of reach of all light
stars, ever far
listless tides along the changing shore

and everything just feels like rain
the road we're on, the things we crave
and everything just feels like rain
if i should sleep, what's left to dream
"'Zwan-Mary Star of the Sea

Great song, the the BNL certianly did a fabulous cover, but if the point is to quote lyrics, you should attribute the man who wrote them and orginally performed the song, Bruce Cockburn. It is available on iTMS if you want to hear it.

"how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?!"

"They say that heaven is like TV:
A perfect little world that doesn't really need me..."

Oh, wait, was this thread about GREAT lines or really cheesy bad lines?

Time to lower the tone with an amusing little ditty celebrating manhood...

Artiste: Raunchous Brothers
Song: Women's Lib

Wake up ***** it's time to face reality,
As far as I'm concerned you've got no ******* personality

Housework and sex is your only job,
You're not a worthwhile human being, you're just a fraud

You'll never be my equal so quit your nagging and your bitching,
Get on your knees and suck my **** then get back to the kitchen

Artiste: McLusky
Song: Lightsabre ****sucking Blues

I'm fearful I'm fearful I'm fearful of flying
And flying is fearful of me

A nice little ditty about the Internet...

Artiste: The Sisters of Mercy
Song: Detonation Boulevard

through the angel rain
through the dust and the gasolene
through the cruelty of strangers
to the neon dream
long distance information
just tell me where the manholes steam
a little girl waits on my station
with a new machine
- on Detonation Boulevard

I got wrecked out here
in a eldorado
I got wired, white-walled
this hot-wired sedan
I caught something weird in Ensenada
I've a brother of sorts in Torquemada
long distance information
disconnect me if you can
- on Detonation Boulevard

pink noise, white noise
and a violet whining sound
it burns inside this car
no cops, no signs, no left, no right
no stops, no turning round
well, you can run but you can't ride
you won't get far
- on Detonation Boulevard
- bang bang

through the angel rain
through the rust and the gasolene
through the cruelty of strangers
to the neon dream
long distance information
I'll take the same
I got the fuel for the transformation
I'm a naked flame
- on Detonation Boulevard
- bang bang

Oops, my apologies. That's a good line too.

1. "I'm not dumb but I can't understand
how she walks like a woman
and talks like a man,
Oh my Lola"
- The Kinks, "Lola"

2. "You never thought you'd get addicted -- just be cooler in an obvious way.
Well, I could say:
Shouldn't you have got a couple peircings and decided maybe that you were gay?
In a way,
I can't help but feel responsible, I always knew that you were insane,
with your pain.
But I never thought you'd be a junkie because heroin is so passe."
- The Dandy Warhols, "Not If You Were The Last Junkie On Earth"
